VbPortal is not PHP-Nuke based, the core of 2.0 was not based on nuke, just the addons like links etc. However since 3.0.0 even the add-ons have been re-written and are not Nuke based. vbPortal 3.0.0. is in fact just as efficient as vbulletin itself since the coding is based on vBulletin example and not PHP-Nuke. The portal itself is also valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ht...w.vbportal.com

Thanks for the update. I admit that I last used vBPortal with vB2 almost 2 years or more ago, and it added hundreds of mysql queries to my database. I'm sure that vBPortal version 3 is a world of difference and I apologise for my ignorance in this matter. I didn't realise that vBPortal 3 is no longer Nuke based. I guess I better get up to date before making generalised statements like I did.

The beauty of vbPortal is that everything is template based, you can make the columns look however you like, wide as you like, one if you like, on the right if you like etc... it's completely flexible to any style you would like to have your portal like. now that vbPortal is out of beta many styles will start appearing. Includeing full across the top menus if you want.

PHP-Nuke-based portals like vBPortal tend to run a lot more queries. Just a consideration.

are you saying the width between the left, center and right column is too narrow for your likeing?
if so its an insignificant change to the .css. I wanted maximum content so set the width between the columns to 5px. I'm considering 800x600 visitors. Its also why many of my pages only have blocks toggled in the left column. I'm not restricted to the same blocks on every page, each page can have which ever blocks I decide.
